Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Social and Economic Measures for Population Control Population explosion is a social problem and it is deeply rooted in society. So efforts must be done to remove the social evils in the country. Population control is a way in which the rate of population growth […]
Management > Managerial Statistics > Index Number By Kelly’s Method and Walsh’s Method Kelly’s Method: Truman L. Kelly has suggested the following formula for constructing index number. Here weights are the quantities which may refer to some period, not necessarily the base year or current year. Thus the average quantity of two or more years […]
Management > Managerial Statistics > Index Number By Marshall Edgeworth Method The Marshall Edgeworth Method for the index number, credited to Marshall (1887) and Edgeworth (1925), is a weighted relative of the current period to base period sets of prices. This index uses the arithmetic average of the current and based period quantities for weighting. Price Index by Marshall Edgeworth Method: […]
Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Population Explosion Population Explosion refers to the sudden, drastic, and rapid rise in the size of the population, especially the human population. It is an unchecked growth of human population caused as a result of increased birth rate, decreased infant mortality rate, and improved life expectancy. It […]
Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Demographic Study The word ‘Demography’ is a combination of two Greek words, ‘Demos’ meaning people and ‘Graphy’ meaning science. Thus demography is the science of people. Demography is the statistical and mathematical study of the size, composition, and spatial distribution of human populations and how […]
Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Attributes of Human Population Part – III Population fluctuations, biotic potential, and carrying capacity is another set of attributes of the human population. Population Fluctuation: In all populations, numbers rise and fall over time. Once the population has reached equilibrium in a certain region, its […]
Management > Managerial Statistics > Index Number By Fisher’s Method Laspeyre’s method is based on fixed weights of the base year. For price index base year’s quantities are used as weights. Paasche’s method is based on fixed weights of the current year. For price index, current year’s quantities are used as weights. Fisher has suggested […]
Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Attributes of Human Population Part – II Population growth is the increase in the number of individuals in a population. The growth rate is the number of individuals added per thousand individuals in a given time. The growth rate can be represented by a graph called […]
Science > Biology > Human Population and Population Control > Attributes of Human Population Part – I Group of individuals of the same species occupying a particular geographic area at a given time and have the capability to breed with each other. The population is a taxonomic category lower than the species. Population share a common […]
Management > Managerial Statistics > Index Number By Dorbish and Browley’s Method Laspeyre’s method is based on fixed weights of the base year. For price index base year’s quantities are used as weights. Paasche’s method is based on fixed weights of the current year. For price index, current year’s quantities are used as weights. Dorbish […]
